    I love Hayden. I followed lots of his critiquing skills to edit my videos. It helped me gain over a million followers across socials. I film everything with my phone too. I started seriously posting on youtube in october and gain over 300k in 5 months time. Storytelling is so OP.

    Thank you Jon and Hayden for this insightful video. I've got extremely good story content and I just haven't been able to build what we need to get it out there. Editing (and some related production) is my main barrier. (Well heck, my main barrier is that I haven't had time to lead this project.) In any case, I'd be highly interested in an event/mastermind/course or some such where we focused our brains on improving our stories for the UA-cam platform.

    I liked the question about "you didnt want recognition as the editor?" Because I've been an editor on UA-cam for about as long as Hayden. You've never heard of me, you'll never be able to guess who ive worked with or what I've achieved. But I've been on this platform since 2009, and been earning a living here since 2017 building channels for people from zero to hundreds of millions of views. If I wanted to be popular, I would have been. but I dont want attention. Why would I want to be famous, when I can be the king maker and live in silence?
